The Kennedys

Terrific show that deserved a much better fate than it got. Parkinson and Peacock(real-life husband and wife) are outstanding as is the entire cast. If only the BBC would have given this gem another time slot or moved it to BBC 2. Such a shame we only have six episodes.

I felt the need to write this comedy after reading reviews which were extremely negative.

This new comedy from the BBC has been extremely funny from start to finish. It is refreshing to have a comedy without a laugh track.

Set in the 70's The Kennedy's offers an extremely funny and witty slice of 1970's England.

The cast of the Kennedy's is brilliant with Katherine Parkinson shinning as Brenda.

I really hope it will return for an equally comedic second series.And that we see more comedies of equal quality.

This is one of the funnier sitcoms I have seen in quite some time. Post Covid, I started to run out of series to watch and found The Kennedys. I'm glad I did! One season, still worth the watch and some good belly laughs. It's a shame it only ran for one season. I hope it gets a reboot with added seasons but I have to say, the chemistry of the acting team will be tough to beat.

This show was fantastic and the BBC made a huge mistake in not commissioning a second series. The whole cast were perfect and the stories were based on a book which was also hilariously funny. A shame that we only got six episodes.

I can't believe The Kennedys didn't get a second series commissioned! It felt unique and was laugh-out-loud funny each episode.

It has made me want to read the source material its loosely based on - The Tent, The Bucket and Me by Emma Kennedy. The first episode in particular had us laughing until we cried and excited that we had somehow stumbled upon a hidden gem.

Things were just as funny when 'the bucket' itself makes an appearance. Glad I never went camping with them. In fact, I don't think I'll go camping in a tent ever again now! It's the kind of show that makes you smile while reminiscing about it.

Not every episode was a winner though. Some fell flat, and even though it wasn't a long series, it did somehow manage to lose momentum. Still, the acting was all great and the lines delivered with excellent comedic timing. Will definitely watch again, especially when needing some laughter medicine!
